  1. I'm not sure if this is real or not and it's not the best video, but here you go 20160726_122949.mp4
  2. This should turn out to be a pretty rare kit I got at a normal price. Just sent payment. Guy in Japan went directly to MFH to pick this up and supposedly it is not, and will not be available to any distributors online or otherwise. The 1/12 version is still available, but I didn't want to spend that kind of money, and I have nowhere to put it. 1/24 Model Factory Hiro Ford GT LM 2017
  3. I used solder for the posts, PE washers for the corrosion donuts
  4. I have the longtail with Hobby Design brake and wheel set, and their PE detail set. Makes for a pretty intricate build.
  5. nice build, we need more cars from LEMONS. If anyone is unclear: https://24hoursoflemons.com/
  6. polishing them is pretty easy. Do it, if you can, before you detach them from the sprue. Use the last 2 steps of sanding sticks, typically they would be white/gray, or light gray/dark gray. This will get them a mirror shine
  7. Typically you would cut it out and replace the part, but it depends. Usually you will have the wheel center, then a tab on the end of the spoke that is not on the kit part, like an extended tab. If so, then most likely those tabs attach to the backside of the steering wheel after you cut the center out
  8. How are you rationalizing this?
  9. The AMG GT is a cool kit, but I couldn't resist getting this
  10. The difference is free vs paid. It's free, you aren't entitled to anything. When you pay for cloud services, you should read your contract or the terms and conditions. I use the cloud for everything, but I have everything stored locally as well. I have everything in the cloud for access, but I don't trust it 100%. Servers can be compromised. There is nothing wrong with the cloud, but if anyone thinks they are going to sue a company for revoking a free privilege, then they are wasting their time. it was free, you are not entitled to anything. If you lost files because of this, that is 100% on you and you deserve nothing
  11. there are 3 sides to every story
  12. that turned out great
  13. PB has sucked for years
  14. I bought a couple wheel sets for the new Revell AMG GT. I really wanted the Plamoz wheels, but I really wanted the DIve Nine tires, since they have all the sidewall detail. Turns out you can't interchange the parts. I expected this, but was hoping otherwise. The Dive Nine tires are hard resin, while the Plamoz appear to be silicone, or a similar material. Bother are great quality, but the Plamoz wheels are the cleanest castings I have ever seen. Both sets are staggered 19" front and 20" rear in 1/24. Despite this, they are significantly different in size. Plamoz does offer a 20/21" staggered set in a different style, which should be right around the size of the Dive Nine set. The Plamoz wheels are the light gray, the Dive Nine are the dark wheels. If you want bigger, fatter wheels and tires and don't mind hard resin tires, go with the Dive Nine set. If you want the cleanest castings and rubbery tires, go with the Plamoz set. Both are great detial, but the Dive Nine will require a little cleanup, while the Plamoz require none. This picture is a little off. The difference between the wheel and tire size seems ot be exaggerated, it's not as obvious in person
  15. Couple more I got from a guy on Facebook Ferrari 575M with Hobby Design Set Ferrari 365 GT4 with Crazy modeler Set Ferrari 328 GTB with Hobby Design Set I forgot a picture of the box, but it's the Fujimi Dino 246 GT with Model Factory Hiro Detail Set White metal parts Acu Stion FXX K shock set Incredible upgrade
  16. The Plamoz stuff is incredible, cleanest castings I have ever seen I have a bunch of kits on the way as well. In the picture is the Carbon Fiber Templates for 911 GT!, Nissan R89C, R390 GT1, Murcielago R-SV and 2 sheets of adhesive leather from Model Factory Hiro Also got the Hobby Design detail kit and the LP760 engine kit. The engine kit will need some scratch building for the intake manifold to be accurate, but the rest should work. The actual kit is on the way Bunch of PE sets, some 1/24 fuel line and 1/24 zip ties from MFH
  17. maybe if you use a few more exclamation points, they will shiow up
  18. Nice, looking forward to seeing how this turns out. I just ordered a wheel/tire set and photo etch from Plamoz for the Mercedes AMG GT
  19. That's a great video, I really like it. Nice build too
  20. it depends on where they store their shipping info. If it was through their site and they had an issue with the site, he may not have access to previous shipping info.
